Chapter 341: Insta-kill Grumpig
That afternoon, Valor arrived at the Tower of Despair with Grumpig as agreed.
The person in charge of the Tower of Despair took the Poké Ball from him and asked, “Are you staying to watch the battle?”
The Guardian Pokémon of the Tower of Despair cannot be commanded by anyone, even if it’s their Trainer or they are teachers’ Pokémon.
When facing challengers, Guardian Pokémon must fight on their own. In contrast, challenger Pokémon have the advantage of fighting alongside their Trainers.
If a challenger defeats a Guardian Pokémon, they have two options:
One, they can replace the current Guardian of that floor and become the new Guardian Pokémon, or two, they can continue the challenge.
However, aside from the considerable credit rewards for reaching certain floors, most people choose to become Guardians. Serving as a Guardian Pokémon for a set number of days also comes with rewards.
The academy’s system is to try every means to provide abundant resources to encourage students to progress. Though the Tower of Despair is difficult, the underlying principle remains unchanged.
“It shouldn’t take long; I’ll just watch,” Valor said.
